A Memorial Day to Remember!

We made our annual trip back to Ohio for Memorial Day this May. It was James' second trip to Ohio, but his first up north to meet my extended family. We made it a long weekend so we would have plenty of time for fun with the family. We started the trip with a day at the indoor water park. Grandma and Poppy have wanted to take Jack for a few years, and he was more than ready this year! He had a great time in the wave pool, on the water slides, and the lazy river ride. He has been asking to go back ever since.

We also got all dressed up to go to Grandpa Bill and Alice's wedding! I was certain that Jack would refuse to wear his dress-up clothes and would end up wearing a Lightning McQueen shirt to the wedding. But, it turns out he really enjoyed getting all decked out. He especially liked wearing a tie and he told everyone at the wedding: "I have a tie and awesome pants!"

He was as good as you can expect a three-year-old to be at a wedding, and James was good as always.

Jack was rewarded with a milkshake at McDonald's for good behavior afterwards. And, we got to spend the night away in Cleveland thanks to Grandma!

We finished the weekend with a great picnic hosted by Grandma and Poppy. Hope to see you all again soon!
